Surely loading from the site wont work because we do not have flash player?

I'm pretty certain I read somewhere that the iplayer app needs flash to run, so you probably won't have any luck getting it working on WF. Sorry!

i should have said i tried the i player app download from here and the market
has anyone still got the original myplayer app which played bbc

[APP] Adobe Flash Player 10.1 (For ARMv6!)

Flash has been converted to work for ARMv6 devices, such as the Legend!
Thread
Direct download link
Sideload it as you normally would, reboot, and it should work!
It's not really fully functional - my browser crashes if I try to play a YouTube video, for example - but it does work!
works so far here, didnt try games or anything like that.. coz that makes no sense for me
would adobe air also be possible and the games that need adobe air?

I can't install the .apk
'App isn't installed'
My device is S-ON could this be the reason?
Possibly - it's over 11MB, though, it could be a space issue? I think my phone was only having a fit because of space.
I doubt it's because you're S-ON, though, it's just an app.
I've tried it on my legend With CM7.0.3 rom, but it doesn't work very great, when I open web page from my local tv station with news, it just closes web browser and when I play larger clips from youtube, or similar pages, it often freezes and force closes.
A lot of fc , but in any oportunities works fine

It closes my browser when i try to watch online video (not in Youtube).
This + TinyShark (aka more or less grooveshark on android) = Perfect Win !
No Fc's and a free deezer-like radio on my phone.

YESSS!!
Not being able to run TinyShark was the only shadow in my legend, but finally this is not a problem anymore.
It freezes after +/- 1 min.
Is there another version which is working?

Works perfectly on my unrooted stock 2.2.

[Q] can't watch streaming movies online

I rooted and installed the honeycomb rom on my g tablet it's running great and smooth but I can't see any streaming online movies. Any ideas please help.

First...... Please use the search before posting!
It is well known that flash is not working on most of the honeycomb ports hence online video streaming sites will not work correctly on most browsers.
Try using opera!
I tried opera but won't open neither. Should I try different rom.

I would suggest using "CyanogenMOD 7.0.3 Stable" for the Gtablet.
this ROM is very stable and Video streaming does work well when you use the fixed version of Adobe Flash Player found here
BE ADVISED: This rom runs on the 1.1 Bootloader so I strongly suggest you switch over to that first before attempting to flash the ROM.
The best advice I can give you right now... READ... READ IT AGAIN.. Then READ IT ONCE MORE before you start playing around with low level operations like NVFLASH and ADB...

You mentioned that you are on Honeycomb so I can only guess its a 1.2 Bootloader... If its 1.1 then you can simply flash CM7 followed by a cache/data/davlik wipe...
If you are on 1.2 then you must downgrade to 1.1 before flashing this ROM.
Goodluck!
There is a setting in the browser to make add-ons start automatically, and if it is disabled then some media may not stream. I had that problem with my Froyo gTab. It will not solve your problem if it's Honeycomb-related, but it's worth a shot before changing ROMs.
I have found using RockPlayer Lite works on Dolphin and stock browsers in HC.

Well, as long as Netflix counts as streaming movies ... I can vouch for FlashBack version 7.1. I have no problem using the netflix app to view my stuff.

BBC news website embedded video issue

I've been trying to play video on BBC news website with no success. The loading circle just rotates forever. Funny thing is when I first got my sgs2 it played no problem whatsoever. Also BBC iplayer main website won't let me access it, says my phone not supported. Once again I think I could access it before I upgraded from 2.3.3. Java is enabled in my settings and plugins are allowed. I'm unrooted on stock voda 2.3.5. Anybody else sufferring from this problem?

All working fine here... do u have flash installed OK?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
Yeah, running latest version of flash downloaded from market. Using stock browser. Tried uninstalling flash updates, but made no difference. The red ring just keeps whirling round forever and video never plays. All very odd. Every other site I've tried video works fine e.g. sky news, t3, stuff TV, itv news, gadget show. Even BBC one watchlive worked. I guess it must be my settings somehow? But i've no idea what exactly.

Yes, I have the problem as well. It was one of the good things about the S2 that I could watch all the BBC news videos. I guess the BBC have changed something.
I have just tested and it now works OK using Dolphin HD Browser (and you can watch full screen unlike on the stock browser)
Also the videos work on the official BBC news app
I agree, the first thing I checked in shop on demo gs2 was flash playing video on BBC news website. The speed and smoothness really impressed me. Coming from HTC legend ARMv6 where flash was crap, it helped make my decision to buy gs2 final. At least now I know someone else has this issue and shares my disappointment.
Good to know it still works with dolphin hd though. But for me I'd rather stick to stock browser because if hardware acceleration. So the fact it doesn't work anymore is pretty frustrating.:-(

i have solved this problem by using an older version of adobe flash that i still had backed up in titanium backup. but i don't know if thats the best solution since then you won't get the newest versions and security fixes.....
Using titanium backup to roll back flash might be an option. Although i'm pretty sure I would need root. Interestingly I have uninstalled all flash updates back to 10.1 and it made no difference. So maybe flash isn't the problem?

Can you give me a link to try?
I know that the bbc have recently moved over to HTML5 video content.

This is probably the issue though I have surfed through the site and it is all working for me.

Interesting article. I presume you want the link to the web page I'm having trouble with? It's just the BBC news front/home page.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/
If I've picked you up wrong let me know.
Also as I stated earlier BBC iplayer (WEBSITE) says my phone isn't supported. Does that also work for you? Thanks for your input

Came here to find out the same. The iPlayer apk seems to be relatively easy to find, but once installed it asks for the media player, which I can't find.
